Quotes

• Here in the country’s heart
  Where the grass is green,
  Life is the same sweet life
  As it e’er hath been.
  Trust in a God still lives,
  And the bell at morn
  Floats with a thought of God
  O’er the rising corn.
  God comes down in the rain,
  And the crop grows tall—
  This is the country faith,
  And the best of all.
